This award funds a study investigating how the in utero cardiometabolic environment affects cardiovascular health and arterial injury in young adults, focusing on epigenetic mechanisms and early biomarkers.
Description
The proposed study will investigate the cardiometabolic in utero environment and its association with cardiovascular health (CVH) and arterial injury in young-adult offspring. It aims to provide insights into the burden of poor CVH and arterial injury during a critical life stage, identify timing for future interventions, and explore mechanisms of cardiometabolic risk transfer from mothers to children.
